Saturday Roundup

Yesterday I had my appointment in Regina with the specialist for my cervical biopsy. 

This was not a pleasant experience, as I told Harvey I would much rather break a bone or give birth to 12 babies in a row than go through that again. It hurt (I have a very high pain tolerance)!! I could feel every snip of tissue being removed and there was lots of snipping.

I am not sure if I want the biopsied tissue to be cancer free or not...… It seems that if it is cancerous removal would be preferable to having to go through this every six months or every year (that is if it is one of the diseases that could turn to cancer and they need to keep an eye on it).

Left the room very much in a haze of pain. When I got out to the waiting room Harvey took one look at me and asked what was wrong. I told him I wanted to go home, which meant no visit with Kris. The remainder of yesterday I had major cramps, today they seem to have gone. However the bleeding has not really lessened, and I am busy watching for signs of infection. Hopefully that will not happen and tomorrow everything will be back to normal or at least as normal as it can possibly be.

I need to phone the specialists office on Monday and set up an appointment for 4 weeks. I should know what if anything will be done (or if anything needs to be done) at that point. Four weeks of waiting this time around will be a breeze.

In other news I have almost finished hand quilting the blocks I only have two left and then I can start on the slashing. I may just be able to mark this project off the to do list this month. This means I could almost start another quilt or two to use snuggling into in the living room. Could also mean lots of other sewing getting accomplished as well.

The cleaning and using up of the chest freezer is moving right along. Amazing what a person can do when they put their minds to a task.

Everybody have a wonderful evening.

God bless.

  2. That sounds so bad. I hope you're feeling better now ... and that you don't have to endure that too often. Fingers firmly crossed for good results. xx
